NOVEL NEXT Chapter141-The King Stan Who Was Instantly Killed
"It's King Stan!"
"The legendary Source of Power, Stan! He's still here in this plane!"
"This ancient being has stayed in the Cigan Plane all this time! I thought he had already left!"
"Now we're in for a good show! The King Stan, once hailed as the invincible ruler of the plane, is here to deal with this arrogant fool who doesn't know his place!"
Upon seeing Stan's figure, countless beings and powerful individuals were filled with excitement.
It was both a blessing and a curse to be born in the same era as Stan.
The curse was that, no matter how extraordinary your talent, you would inevitably end up as mere background to his glory.
The blessing was that you would witness firsthand the true pinnacle of happiness and power.
In the void,
Leo turned his head to look at Hathaway beside him, smiling as he asked,
"Darling, what do you think of this strong individual's strength?"
Hathaway was momentarily taken aback, not expecting Leo to suddenly ask for her opinion.
She looked at the distant, imposing Stan, and after a brief moment of thought, she gave a simple and objective evaluation.
"He's okay."
Okay?!
Just "okay"?
Those words made Stan, who had been smiling with a hint of amusement, suddenly freeze in place.
In his eyes, he was just "okay"?!
A surge of unspoken fury ignited in his gaze.
At this moment, Leo had already stepped forward.
His figure appeared not far from Stan, and the two ancient beings stood facing each other from a distance.
"I'll give you a chance. Make your move,"
Leo said to Stan, as if stating a simple fact.
Upon hearing this, the fire in Stan's heart grew fiercer.
"You do have attention-grabbing strength,"
Stan's voice carried a cold edge.
"But your ignorant arrogance, not knowing your place, is no different from a clown in the eyes of true strong beings."
"Forget it,"
he sneered.
"Let me show you what the primordial power derived from the very source of the universe feels like!"
With that,
Countless strands of energy representing different foundational laws appeared in the void, as if summoned by his will, converging in Stan's hands.
They quickly intertwined, merging, and eventually transforming into multiple rings of light that radiated both destructive and creative energy.
Stan's arms suddenly spread wide, as if embracing the entire universe!
"Reversion: Oblivion Creation!"
This was Stan's signature ultimate move—Reversion!
It was the very move that had earned him his legendary title, as he had once used it to single-handedly cripple three Lord of Order of the same rank, cementing his invincible reputation!
After endless years, this legendary technique had reappeared!
"My God! I can't believe I'm witnessing King Stan's Reversion again!"
"This ignorant fool dares to claim supremacy? Ha! Forget about defeating King Stan—if he survives this attack without dying, I'll personally rebuild the entire Holy City with my bare hands!"
"King Stan's aura is far more terrifying than before!"
Seeing this legendary move, all the strong beings in the Cigan Plane were in an uproar.
Every powerful individual observing the battle held their breath, afraid to miss a single detail.
They all knew Leo was incredibly powerful, but the deeply ingrained image of Stan as the invincible king made them more inclined to believe in this ancient ruler.
At that moment,
With a sudden thrust of his hands forward,
Hum—!
The entire Cigan Universe trembled, as if the plane could not withstand the force unleashed.
Boom!!!
The terrifying light ring, formed from countless laws, surged toward Leo with unstoppable force!
Wherever it passed, the space turned into absolute nothingness!
On Stan's face, a calm and confident smile appeared.
With this move, which fused all his learned ultimate techniques, no one had ever been able to leave unharmed.
This was his absolute confidence!
Of course, he acknowledged Leo's strength, for the young man was the first to make him feel a tangible sense of pressure in countless ages.
Because of this, he had chosen to use his strongest trump card from the very beginning.
In the distance,
Leo remained expressionless.
To be fair, this strike was indeed powerful.
A typical Lord of Order would have a high chance of perishing against such a terrifying attack. Even if they survived, they would likely be severely wounded.
The ancient being before him had reached the limit of the Lord of Order rank.
He was only one step away from the next elusive rank in the legendary system.
However, this last step had imprisoned him for millions of years.
But today, he would get what he desired!
Leo slowly raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist.
Then, with a simple punch, he struck directly at the world-shattering Reversion light ring.
There was no overwhelming radiance, no surge of law; it was just pure, unadulterated power!
Yet, this seemingly ordinary punch caused Stan's smile to freeze instantly.
His pupils contracted sharply!
Boom—!!!
It was as though two universes had collided in an explosive sound!
The entire Cigan Plane shook violently.
The very essence of the plane cried out in anguish, clearly unable to bear the aftermath of this collision that surpassed all limits!
Under the astonished gazes of all the powerful beings,
The attack light ring, containing endless laws, shattered and vanished as soon as it made contact with Leo's fist, like snow melting under the sun, disappearing silently.
And the shockwave of the punch continued unabated, charging straight toward Stan.
Faced with this punch, which surpassed comprehension, Stan felt a sense of despairing power gap for the first time in his life.
He realized that all his defenses, all his laws, and all his tricks were utterly powerless in the face of this single punch.
Boom!!!
Another muffled sound came, not from an explosion, but from the crushing of power, as the laws were forcibly flattened by the punch.
The energy wave gradually dissipated, and Stan's figure lay quietly in the void.
His vast aura still left a chilling feeling, but he had lost all ability to act.
Stan had been defeated!
And it was a crushing, overwhelming defeat!
In that moment, the entire Cigan Plane fell into dead silence.
All the powerful beings now understood the true meaning of Leo allowing Stan to strike first.
If Leo hadn't given him the chance, Stan wouldn't even have been qualified to make a move!
What kind of terrifying existence was this?!
Why had there never been any trace of him in the cosmic chronicle?
Could it be...
Is he an outsider, a being from beyond the plane?
Looking at the unconscious Stan in the void,
Leo casually tossed a mysterious essence crystal.
The crystal emitted pure and gentle energy, slowly flowing into Stan's body.
Strange changes began to occur.
Stan had never encountered failure on his journey.
He had always moved forward with ease, unable to truly understand his own flaws and limits.
Now, Leo had opened the door for him with absolute power, allowing him to experience a higher level of force.
If Stan could break through his mental barriers, his strength would undergo a qualitative leap!
Upon seeing the alluring essence crystal, many ancient beings hidden in the shadows stirred with greed.
But just then,
Leo's voice rang out clearly in the ears of every powerful being.
"I've spared this man."
"If anyone dares to harm him, no matter how many star domains separate us, I will personally visit."
He had no grudges against Stan; he used him to prove his own strength, then gave him some compensation afterward, a fair exchange.
After speaking, Leo no longer lingered.
He turned and walked toward Hathaway.
The greed that had just arisen in the hidden beings of the Cigan Universe instantly vanished without a trace.
When compared to any potential opportunity, it was clear that their own lives were far more important!
